Hey guys,
I had to take a break from the Talon for little while. (new info showed I had LOTS of probs with the wing location and the lower fuse, which entailed LOTS of changes in the landing gear, etc) So... I've been fooling around with this some. I haven't even looked at wing folding, landing gear, etc. and I am definitely going to finish the T38 first, but we just needed some time apart
.
I won't be able to access the net probably until Sunday (11/26) but thought y'all might want something to talk about (or get a laugh-this is a big bite to take) over the weekend.

Better than I can do. I tried to do a Cheyenne attack copter (anyone remember that bird?) in Gmax but I gave upon it. It looked a heap of crud!

Hey guys,
I was able to pop-up for a few minutes to see what's going on. (I'm on someone else's dial-up
) Thanks for the support. I have been able to work on the Talon some so I hope iT will be better. I usually can take my laptop with me. BTW, great to see a new package!

Been messing around with this some more while some other people put some fresh eyes on the P-3.

Very cool!
I was thinking about this model just the other day wondering what had happened to it.

Nick, I don't throw nothin' away
. I may lose things though because of all the junk I accumulate
.
I'm going to start working on some textures soon so will post when a little further along.
Thanks for the kind words.

As promised, here are some pics with a little paint on it. (obviously I'm not a painter
)
Majic Mike if you're out there I like to send you a model to see if you can get it to quit jumping all over the place.

Hi Jake
Any news on the Prowler? Would be a great addition to any Navy package.
BTW, your T-38's are superb. Good job.

Thanks Lewis, for the kind words
.
Most of the credit for the Talon goes to
Weescotty . He was the driving force in making the necessary corrections, which were many, and getting the thing finished.
The Prowler has been on the back burner. I'm concentrating on the B-52 right now. I hope she's getting close to the LOD stage which for me slows things down a good bit.
Here's a screenie of the latest on the prowler though:
